Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 29 January 2013
544. Deputy Sean Fleming asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government when a grant application will be approved in respect of an organisation (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4391/13]
View answerAxes 3 & 4 (LEADER) of the Rural Development Programme (RDP) 2007-2013 , for which my Department has responsibility, continues to facilitate access to significant financial resources for rural communities. One of the objectives of the RDP is to provide appropriate amenity and leisure facilities to local communities not otherwise available to them. I am pleased, therefore, that the application for funding under the Village Renewal and Development measure of the RDP for the project referred to in the question has been approved and Laois Partnership, the relevant Local Development Company in this case, will be in contact with the project promoter in that regard.
